Great post. And just think of how close this could've been to a 1-2 weekend. Good teams find a way to win. I wish we could've taken one from Arkansas, but this was a great series.

We were +1 on the sun balls and that was the difference.

Yeah, take the sweep anyway we can get it because the next three weeks are going to be extremely tough. We go to Auburn, home to UM and then on the road to Vandy. That's a tough stretch for anybody.

The problem with Hatcher is he is trying to pull the ball and is just rolling ove to second. he is at his best when going to left. Early this year he had 2 doubles to left. Oppo is the way to get out of his slump.
-
I?ve been saying for 3 weeks that Hatcher needs to sit. He provides nothing defensively that we couldn?t get from Pimentel, Hancock, Allen, etc. The kid just isn?t seeing the ball well at all. It sucks, but it is what it is and unfortunately for him we?re not in the feelings business. We?re in the we need to win now business so he needs to be sitting.

He had more strike outs than good contact. He struck out exactly 1/3 of his AB’s this weekend with some bad AB’s. I watched every pitch. When you drop 74 points on your average since the start of SEC play and have the lowest OBP by far of any regular player (Clark is the only one lower I believe and he hadn’t played much at all)...sometimes time off from some starts is a good thing. Doesn’t have to be permanent but there has to be a change at some point because you can’t give some one 275 AB’s with a .200 average and he’s over a third of the way there.

Hatcher is 2-24 with 2 RBIs and 6 Ks in his last 6 games. What game are you watching that you could possibly think he still needs to be in the lineup?

Watch the damn games. He's one of the few that can get the ball to jump off the bat.
Yesterday here is Hatcher's AB's
1st - ground ball up the middle to move the runner over. Did his job! You goons see that as "0-1"
2nd - smokes a grounder right at the 1B. A couple feet either way and it's a hit.
3rd - K. It happens
4th - frozen rope liner to opposite field that gets caught.
All you morons see is "0-4 dang he sux". Watch the damn game.

I've watched every inning of SEC ball. Go through his 5 AB's Friday night for us when he had the hat trick. It's not about yesterday's 0-4. It's his 4/35 in SEC play and batting .200 thats the problem. Hell- he was hitting .259 OOC so it wasnt like he was killing it before SEC play got going. He is only player on the team that has had 5 or more AB's that has an OBP less than .300
2/9 vs E. Michigan
2/9 vs Kent State
2/12 vs Tulane
6/30 in those 3 series- which is what he is hitting now- .200
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

This is exactly why he needs to grab some pine for a few games.

The "Josh Hatcher Fried Crow Tour" begins Tuesday night. Bring your own plates, forks, and knives.

What he does Tuesday against the SWAC matters not. It's all about Fri/Sat/Sun

1st - ground ball up the middle to move the runner over. Did his job! You goons see that as "0-1" It was a 2-1 count and he chased a ball low and away well off the plate when he need something to pull to move the runner over. He got that pitch at 2-0 and barely got a piece to foul it off. That was the one and he missed it, again. He did enough to do a job when he flicked his wrist at the last minute but that could have easily been a pop out to short. Which could have lead to Tanner doubled up and losing that run. SS was playing right up the middle. He would have been better off by far going with the pitch and hitting it through that big hole with the shift they had on. But the result you are pimping is from a horrible AB. It was a terrible AB with a workable outcome. That’s using a lucky result from a piss poor example of an AB and a terrible swing
2nd - smokes a grounder right at the 1B. A couple feet either way and it's a hit. Yeah it was hit hard but a dead pull. It was an easy play for the 1st baseman and with that ball location with his swing it was was going to be a ground ball to either going to first or foul. The 1st baseman was on the line and he hit it straight to him.
3rd - K. It happens
4th - frozen rope liner to opposite field that gets caught.Was his best swing by far and great contact. On time and took the pitch where he needed. No question. Happening basically 2-3 times this series doesn’t overcome the 85% of his AB’s that were not good and haven’t been good for a while now. But that was good contact
All you morons see is "0-4 dang he sux". Watch the damn game.
You are trying too hard. Again, not saying permanently bench, I’m saying he needs to get right and benching him at this point is the best option if we can at all possible.
ETA. He is hitting .114 in SEC play and there are only 2 qualifying players with a lower average. Only 2. Don’t want to wait for him to be dead last before making changes.

Lemonis waits way too long to bench someone. Even worse we have options like Pimentel, Hancock, Allen, Kellum Clark, and Kace Garner off the top of my head.

Cumbest as well if we move Allen back to first
